Fear slowly begins to consume me as my mind won’t stop asking question after question. Will they like me? Are they a peaceful pack? Will they really let me stay?
Then my mind slowly turns to darker questions. Will they make me work like a slave? Shoot. Will they try to sexually assault me? NO!! I’M STILL A VIRGIN! They can’t do that.
Shoot. I still haven’t had my first kiss. I have been waiting for my mate, but that won’t ever happen now. He has already claimed and mated with the alpha’s daughter from another pack. Oh, I have to stop thinking about this.
I’m sure that everything that I’m thinking about surely won’t happen. I need to have faith in the Moon Goddess.
Gus stops the car in front of a huge house. No. This isn’t a house. It is a freaking mansion. A very huge mansion. What kind of pack is this?
I lean forward in my seat as my mouth drops open. You could probably fit all the buildings that my pack has in this mansion and still have room for buildings from other packs.
A soft chuckle fills the vehicle. However, I can’t tear my eyes off of the mansion. I can see more buildings behind it and to the side of it that are also big, but not as big as this building.
Gus softly chimes, “It is a pretty big house. I guess I should have warned you.”
With my eyes still on the mansion, I slowly nod my head. I don’t even know what to say. What do you say to something like this?
Gus nudges my shoulder. “Come on. We have to get in there before the meal starts or those darn rascals will eat everything and leave us nothing.”
He opens the driver’s door and gets out. However, I’m still in a daze. I somehow manage to open the passenger door and get out of the vehicle, but my mouth doesn’t seem to want to work. I silently follow Gus to the mansion.
He opens the door and allows me to go first. I still don’t know where I’m going and I stop right inside the door as I mumble, “Thank you.”
Gus smiles and steps into the entryway as he closes the door behind him.
I think I have left my confidence in the car. However, I have never been in a situation like this before.
My hands begin to sweat and tremble. I hope everything is going to be all right.
Gus walks past me and further into the mansion. I slightly lower my head and follow right behind him. I don’t want to get lost in here. I don’t think I would ever be able to find my way out.
Within a few steps, we walk into what looks like a living room, but it could also pass a game room with all the video game consoles, cartridges, and gaming chairs. Well, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to tell that they like playing video games.
A small smile quickly spreads across my face, but it quickly disappears as we walk further into the house as we get closer and closer to voices. Wait. Are they arguing about something? Shoot. Does this mean that they are a pack of warriors? My father once told me that packs who are born to be warriors often fight over the simplest things.
Would I fit in with a pack of warriors? Oh, I don’t know if this is a good idea or not.
I grab the hem of my shirt and begin to fidget with it.
Gus lightly pats my shoulder. “Blake, calm down. We aren’t going to do anything to you. We are a peaceful pack. Granted, we are a secret and a very well-hidden pack, but we are peaceful. I wouldn’t be surprised that you have never even heard of us before.”
I glance down the hall towards the growing loud voices and slowly shake my head. “My father never mentioned anything about any packs in this area. I went to a human high school and college, so of course, they didn’t mention anything about any werewolves being here either.”
A small smile appears on Gus’ face. “What did you learn about this area in school?”
I think for a bit. What did I learn about this area? Was it good in farming? Think Kane. It isn’t that hard of a question.
Wait! I remember!
I suddenly pop my head up and chime, “Business. This area has some of the biggest and most powerful companies in the country. The teachers also told us that they were all human businesses.”
Gus chuckles and shakes his head. “Well, you are partially right. We have some of the biggest and most powerful companies in the country located in this area, but those big companies are all owned and operated by werewolves. Our alpha, Wyatt, along with the previous alpha, Wyatt’s father, own and run those companies.”
I tilt my head and ask, “Then why are some of the pack working elsewhere, like you are working as a bus driver?”
Gus pats my arm a little harder. “Not all of us are cut out for working in an office. Plus, I have an alternative reason for being a bus driver.”
An alternative reason. What is it?
Confused, I mumble, “What?”
He looks forward towards a large set of double doors and chimes, “You can call me the gate keeper.”
The gate keeper? What is that supposed to mean?
Before I ask, Gus strides forward and grabs the door handle. “We are here. Now the younger ones can be a little rowdy, so don’t be surprised.”
I nod my head. “Okay.”
Gus pulls open the door and the loud noise instantly stops, and the room becomes completely quiet.
This is it.
Gus steps into the dining hall. I hesitate for a moment and take a deep breath.
After a few moments, I tentatively step into the dining hall and slowly scan the room. Dang. That is a lot of werewolves. It would take at least three of my pack to equal the number of werewolves in this room right now.
My knees begin to wobble as I take a few small steps to get closer to Gus. He is the only person that I know, and he has been so kind to me.
Gus clears his throat and announces, “Everyone, this is Blake. I don’t need to tell you much. Most of you can tell already, but for the ones who can’t yet, I will tell you that he has had to leave his pack.”
Before Gus can continue, a cute guy steps forward and begins walking towards us. “I have agreed to let Blake stay here, so please make him feel welcome. Also, since he is the only other male omega that I’ve met, he will be staying with me to make sure that no one does anything to harm him. Do you understand?”
Everyone in the room instantly yells, “Yes, Alpha.”
Did I call him cute? He isn’t just cute, but he is also beautiful. I thought my friend, Ben, is the only beautiful guy, but I’m mistaken. Wyatt is stunning and he isn’t even my mate. Well, Ben isn’t my mate either and I think he is beautiful too.
Wyatt smiles at me as he strides towards me. If Gus hadn’t told me that he is an omega, I would believe that he is truly an alpha, albeit a short alpha, but I would still think that he is an alpha.
I couldn’t help but to wish that I could be like him. People only have to take one look at me, and they immediately know that I’m an omega. I wouldn’t know what I will do if people look at me and think that I’m an alpha. Oh, that is asking for too much, but maybe I can get him to help me look like a beta instead. I definitely think that I can get the confidence to give off a beta aura.
As I’m lost in thought, Wyatt marches up to me and engulfs me in a hug.
This is so different than my pack. I have friends, yes, but to get such a warm welcome is something new to me. My pack reserves greetings like this for a select few, and I’m not one of them even though my older brother is part of that select few. I’m sure that it is because he will be the pack’s next beta and following in our dad’s footsteps. I don’t follow in anyone’s footsteps, especially now.
Ugh… I need to stop thinking about this.
I tentatively wrap my arms around Wyatt and whisper, “Thank you, alpha Wyatt.”
Wyatt hugs me even tighter and whispers, “Not a problem. Us male omegas have to stick together.”
Well, he does have a point. I, however, want to play it safe and make sure not to make waves. If it helps that the alpha is willing to protect me, then I’m not going to argue or disagree. Plus, I can’t explain it, but I already feel like I’m part of the family. I don’t know how, but I do.
Wyatt lets go of me and takes a step back as he chimes, “Blake, you will be sitting at the head table with me. Are you hungry?”
Before I can even respond, my stomach answers for me with a loud growl, which instantly has Wyatt and Gus chuckling. I quickly put my hand on my stomach and lower my head, as I mumble, “Sorry.”
Wyatt shakes his head and chimes, “Don’t be. Now, let’s get you fed, before your stomach starts talking even louder.”
I simply nod my head and follow Wyatt as he turns around and heads towards his table at the end of the room. Oh, I can’t believe that my stomach growled like that. This is so embarrassing.
What have I gotten myself into? I follow Wyatt to his area of the mansion. I don’t even know where my bag is.Shortly after I sat down for the meal, one of the pack members took my bag. She said that she would put it in my room, but I don’t know where that is. Now, I’m following Wyatt through the various halls, which feels more like a maze than a house. Wyatt did tell me as soon as we met that omega males need to stick together, but what does that really mean?Wait. Does that mean that I have to sleep in the same room as Wyatt? I have never shared a bed with anyone. I have been planning on doing that only with my mate. Dang. Why did I have to think about him?With my head lowered, I bite my bottom lip as I try to keep my tears from forming yet again. Over the past few days, I think that I have cried enough for that idiot. I know that my wolf is yearning fo
Where is Kane? I have tried repeatedly to get someone to try and search for my best friend, but everyone seems to just ignore me. Well, not everyone is ignoring me. Kane's father, Beta Malcolm, has sent search groups out, but they keep coming up empty. How could Kane just disappear like that? I know that he has to be miserable and in pain right now. I could see it in his face as Alpha Marcus announced that his son, Mike, has finally found his mate. I wanted to stand up and scream that the girl isn’t Mike’s mate, but I can’t. It isn’t acceptable for someone like me to stand up against Alpha Marcus. Now, Kane could do it, but I know that he won’t. He has kept the identity of his mate secret from everyone except me for the last two years. He only has a couple more months before Mike turns 18 and Mike would then be able to find his mate on his own. However, that all has come crashing down in an insta
I can’t believe that I’m actually learning to fight. I made a simple comment to Wyatt that I wish I could be more like him and bam. Ford and Mason are teaching me to fight. I think I could have handled just one teacher, but with both of them, it is like an intense lesson. When one has to leave to take care of something, the other one comes in and continues with my lesson.Usually, Mason is my main teacher since he is the lead warrior and is the one leading all the training sessions while Ford is Wyatt’s Beta. Between the two, they have taught me in an extremely intense training session every day. I don’t even get Saturday or Sunday off.However, if this is going to get me to the level that Wyatt is at, then I’ll gladly work all these hours and more.Well, I don’t have much else to do, so I might as well train.If I was back at my old pack, I would be getting ready to
Oh, Blake, he is too cute when he is thinking really hard. I should say Kane instead. I know that he gave us a fake name when he first got here. We have given him so many hints to try and slowly let him know that we have special abilities. As the alpha of the pack, even though I’m an omega, I can see people’s abilities. My father, who was the former alpha, has the ability too. We have passed it from each generation to the next one. Other members of the pack have special abilities too. However, everyone in our pack has the ability to see into other people’s minds and see their thoughts. We still don’t understand how we have formed this ability, but it is also one of the reasons that we have secretly hidden ourselves for many generations. According to our elders, other packs learned of our abilities and began to try and use them for their benefit. However, it didn’t take long for us to run in ord
I still can’t understand what has happened. How can someone, who has never met me before, know who I am? As I sit on the bus, I can’t seem to take my eyes off the bus driver. My mind keeps trying to figure it out. However, the only thing that I can think of is that Kane somehow knew that I may be coming to him, and he showed them a picture of me. Nothing else explains what is happening.I finally tear my eyes away from Gus and look out the window. My mind is still trying to grasp the events for today, but what I keep jumping to is the fact that I will be seeing Kane in a few hours. Just the thought of finally getting to see him has me smiling. I also can’t stop trying to think of all the things that I want to tell him. There is one thing that I’m positive that I won’t say to him. No matter what, I’m not going to tell him anything about Mike and that witch. Oops, I mean Bambi,
I still can’t believe everything that has happened today.First, I get to go back to school and get to study what I want to study. Never in a million years would I have thought that something like this would happen to me. Then Wyatt tells me all about the pack and of the secrets associated with the pack.I’m still shocked. He has also told me that Ben has abilities which is why he can sense where I’m at. If the elders work with him, Wyatt is sure that Ben will be able to sense and locate anyone when he really wants to find them.But one of the most shocking things that he has told me is that most of the pack can read people’s minds. That blows my mind away, but then it suddenly clicks why Wyatt always knows what I’m thinking. I don’t have to even say it because if Wyatt wants to, he can just read my mind. He promises that they try to keep it to a minimum, but they do
Wyatt leads us to the head table. The pack has set up another spot for Ben at Wyatt’s table. Luckily, Wyatt’s head table has several vacant seats already. Only Beta Ford and Warrior Leader Mason have been able to sit at the table. If they have mates, then their mates would have been able to sit next to them. Then of course, Wyatt’s mate has a seat at the table right next to him, but since his mate’s death, the seat has been vacant. However, that is the seat that I’ve been using since I’ve gotten here.However, since Ford and Mason don’t have mates, Wyatt rearranged the seats a little so Ben is sitting next to me while Mason and Ford are on the other side of Wyatt.As we sit down, my mind finally begins to work again. I look around the dining hall, but I don’t see Mason or Ford. We have been able to introduce Ben to Mason when we were in the backyard earlier
I don’t even know where I am, but my wolf is jumping around in delight and is howling. I continue to let Ford pull me through the halls of the pack house before he rushes into a room and pulls me in with him. He slams the door shut and before I can say anything else, Ford captures my lips in a searing hot kiss.I have never kissed anyone before, but at this moment, I don’t care if I don’t know how it is to be done. I just want to have his lips wrapped around me. I don’t care if it is my lips, my neck or anywhere else on my body. I need those lips to be in contact with me.My wolf howls in excitement as a burning fire ignites deep inside of me. My mind keeps chanting the same thing over and over. Claim him. He is mine.With the speed of lightening, Ford suddenly has our clothes off and scattered around the room. I still don’t know how that has happened, but I’m n
